AJ and Luke were working out together.
"Did you talk to your sister for me?" Luke asked.
"Yep." "She said she's not interested."
"Did she say why?"
"No."
Later that day Maureen had just arrived at the arena. She was excited. She was going home with Roman tomorrow. She went into the Women's Locker Room.
"Maureen you got flowers." Natalya said.
Maureen went over to the flowers and opened the card. It read.
What will it take to change your mind? – Luke
"Oh these are from Luke." Maureen said looking at Natalya.
"Luke?" "Boy Roman isn't gonna like this." She whispered in Maureen's ear since they weren't alone.
"I know."
Maureen got changed and went to Roman's locker room. When she walked in Jimmy and Jey were there with Roman.
"Hi guys." She said.
"What's up Maureen?" Jimmy said.
"Not much."
"Sick of my cousin yet?"
"Getting there." She said jokingly.
"Well thanks a lot." Roman said.
"I'm joking honey." "Was I interrupting something?"
"No we were just leaving." Jey said. They left.
"Come here." Roman said. She sat down next to him. They kissed. "I can't wait for this weekend."
"Me either." "Roman, I have something to tell you."
"Ok."
"Remember the other day when I told you Luke likes me?"
"Yeah."
"He sent me flowers."
"He sent you flowers?"
"Yeah."
"Today?"
"Yeah." "Don't be mad." "It's not like he knows."
"I know but still." "I don't like another guy hitting on my girlfriend."
"The next time I talk to him I'll tell him to back off." "There's only one man I love and it isn't him."
"I know."
"I'm gonna go talk to AJ."
Maureen went to AJ's locker room. She knocked on the door.
"Come in." He said from the other side. She went in. "Hi."
"Hi." "Have you seen Luke?"
"Not since earlier today."
"He sent me flowers."
"Really?"
"Yeah." "If you see him tell him I said thanks but no thanks."
"Ok."
It was Saturday morning. Maureen was at Roman's. She'd just woken up. As she was going downstairs she saw Roman on the computer. He was Skyping with Jojo.
"Hang on one second Jojo." Roman said. "Hi Maureen." He said looking at her.
"Hi."
"Wanna say hi to Jojo?"
"Absolutely." She went and stood in front of the computer. "Hi."
"Hi." Jojo said. "Maureen right?"
"Yes."
"Daddy talks about you a lot."
"He's told me a lot about you to."
"Jojo." Roman said. "Would it be alright if the next weekend I got you Maureen was here to?"
"Sure daddy that's fine." Jojo said.
"Good."
Later that night Maureen and Roman were laying on the couch watching a movie. She was on top of him. He had this arms around her back. She looked at him and smiled.
"What?" He said.
"I love this." "We don't have a care in the world." "We're just together and that's it."
"Maureen I've been thinking, maybe it's time we go public."
"With our relationship?"
"Yes."
"Are you out of your mind?"
"No." "I just don't think we should have to hide the fact that we're together."
"You know why we have to."
"Like I've told you before." "I don't care what AJ thinks and neither should you."
"I can't Roman." "Not yet."
"When?"
"I don't know." "If he found out…
"What?" "You'd break up with me?"
"No." "It just be World War III."
"Maureen you love me don't you?"
"Yes." "You know I do."
"I love you too, so much and I don't want to hide it." "Will you at least think about telling him?" "It doesn't have be soon just think about it." "For me." "Please."
"Ok I'll think about it."
"Thank you." He kissed her.
